    I noticed that too. Landry's been bodied up and pinned under the basket everytime by Smith. And that's why Hayes will still be a starter. Hayes is probably a lot stronger than Landry and is a good post defender.

    They sure do.

    Yao is 7-3, and in NBA he's 7-6.

    No you are right. Landry seems to be playing for the shot block instead of good positional defense. Or maybe Craig Smith is just that strong.

    Oh give me a break. Landry has scored on him and played him pretty much even. Landry would eat Hayes for lunch.

    Defense can be taught...he will learn by playing and working at practice on it. I'm not concerned.

    I can't believe how bad Mike James sucks for us, and how much we are paying him. I know he's pressing in this game, but he looks totally lost. Amazing...

    Don't judge any of the players' defense at this point in the game.

    That's experience, not necessarily strength, leverage and position on defense takes time to learn.

    RA should put Hayes in to see how he plays with the reserves.

    Only trade I'd make at this point is Clyde Drexler for Jim Peterson.
